Answer -

Data relating to teaching staff and roles is provided in the Department of Education’s Annual Report and sourced from Workforce Profile data as at end June each year. The latest Annual report is available on the Department’s website at

https://education.nsw.gov.au/about-us/strategies-and-reports/annual-reports. Salaries for school teachers and related employees are covered in the Crown Employees (Teachers in Schools and Related Employees) Salaries and Conditions Award 2020. Overtime is not applicable under this Award.

The Award was varied by the NSW Industrial Relations Commission on 23 December 2021 to give effect to provide 2.5 per cent increase (comprised of a 2.04 per cent increase in salaries, plus 0.5 per cent increase in the superannuation guarantee contribution) effective from the first full pay period on or after 1 January 2022 pending the outcome of the arbitration for a new Award in May 2022. Current rates for 2022 are available at https://education.nsw.gov.au/industrial-relations/pay-and-allowances/teaching-service.
